I am part of a ZW Facebook group that is really helpful: https://www.facebook.com/groups/journeytozerowaste/
I'm a part of this group too. I like it for the most part. I get a bit annoyed at the vegan vs. meat eaters arguments though.
We are 2 people, and a mini farm of animals We make 1 bag of trash every couple of weeks and if it wasn't for my nosey dog I would probably use a smaller trash can. We have recycling pick up every 2 weeks and we usually put out one bag and an empty box.
I've been working on a lot of things for zero waste. I love our local cooperative. I'm also almost done with some things in the bathroom. I'm so close to being completely zero waste there. The kitchen is a bit harder. I understand the plight with the cheese. I'm looking for a local raw milk provider, but it's illegal to sell it here. Hoping I can barter for it soon.
Composting is so easy and keeps the trash from smelling so I can wait until the bag is actually full before it has to go out.
Keep up the good work guys.
